A couple years ago...I made a pot of chili...big pot..prolly 20 gallons..anyway, one friend was bitching that he likes his hot, really hot..I took some out and made him a small pot and some rice..I have a hot sauce that you add a couple drops to a large pot and it will spice it up....well I added like 3 tablespoons to his pot of chili( 3 quart pot, btw) and when I made the rice I added cayene, red pepper, 2 more tablespoons of sauce into the water the rice was cooking in...when the rice was done..it was pink...
